It is difficult to develop objective evaluation techniques for the productivity in an R&D organization because there exists such as time lag between inputs and outputs, difficulties of measuring the influencing factors and results of a research and of comparing R&Ds with other objects towards innovation, and problems in identifying analysis elements. Particularly, governmental research institutes, pursuing publicity, have more difficulties in evaluating research achievement than the private ones. In evaluating the productivity of R&D organizations, this study aims at practically using the quantitative evaluation techniques by applying them to the public as well as private institutes. This will be finally contributing to decision making for effective management of R&D organization.

The Lorraine region of France is one of the regions in the core of Europe that suffered most from the decline of its traditional industries. Since the 1970s, various levels of governments have attempted to solve the economic and social problems originating from de-industrialization with policies of regional innovation, e.g., establishing technopole, the creation of the technology transfer network, the launch of the RTP project, and business incubators to promote start-ups, technology transfers, and networks between governments, businesses, universities, public research institutes, and the public. In this context, this paper attempts to analyse governance of regional innovation policies of the Lorraine region, based on an analytical framework developed by a groups of researchers, i.e.. Bae et at (2006). The paper concludes that the roles of governments are important in creating and implementing regional innovation policies of the Lorraine region; the policies heavily rely on the R&D capacity of universities and public research institutes; and various levels of governments have different roles to play.

This article suggests Living Lab approach as a technology commercialization model of public research and development (R&D) projects. Living Lab is a model for end-users, private companies, research institutes, and public organizations to develop technology in a living space which works as a laboratory. Unlike the dominant technology commercialization model which focuses on private enterprises, a new living lab model discusses end-user centered commercialization. Based on general living lab model, three types of technology commercialization model are suggested. The 'Demand exploring type living lab' and the 'Problem solving type living lab' are project-based living lab. The other type of living lab is 'Living lab platform'. The projectbased living lab can be utilized as modules when promoting R&D projects. On the other hand, the living lab platform is infrastructure to provide living labs services to companies, public institutes and municipalities.

Objectives : In spite of the importance of preparing a support system for public health programs, there is a relatively poor system to support Oriental medicine public health programs. In this regard, considerations have been made to give directions for the development of technical support organizations for Oriental medicine public health programs. Methods : The authors investigated support organizations of public health programs and compared Oriental medicine public health programs with them. Results : Technical support organizations for Oriental medicine public health programs are controlled by the National Traditional Korean Medicine Research and Development Center. However there is lack in the relevant budget, technical support, professional abilities for research and planning, connections with research institutes in the Oriental medicine field, and affiliations with the other public health programs. Conclusion : In this context, the following actions are required to systematically and technologically support Oriental medicine public health programs. Health improvement & technical support organizations whose incorporation is promoted by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, should include the National Traditional Korean Medicine Research and Development Center, so as to activate the Oriental medicine public health programs. Legal provisions and the budget for the Oriental medicine public health programs should be secured so as to help identify and implement effective programs for improving the community health. A society for public health oriental medicine need be established so as to consolidate research capacities for the Oriental medicine public health programs. Programs should be developed to train professionals and supports should be intensified for activities to build capacities in technical support organizations.

As the recent research environment and research paradigm have become data-driven, Open Science, based on openness and sharing of public research results, has emerged as a global agenda for scientific research. National policies for sharing and re-use of research data from publicly-funded research are in effect globally. Therefore, in Korea, it is urgent to build policies and infrastructure for sharing and re-use of research data. In this paper, we investigate the current status of research data management of science and technology research institutes in Korea. We conducted in-depth interviews with researchers from 22 research institutes belonging to the National Research Council of Science & Technology, and 20 universities in Korea, asking about terms of creation management utilization of research data, willingness to share data, and needs for sharing and re-use of research data. From these interviews, we drew implications for open research data and future directions.

The importance of selecting the strategic research field is increasingly emphasized by research manager and technology policy-maker in perspective of the strategic allocation of R&D resources, employing the R&D personnel, and formulating technology policy. Among various methods for selecting the strategic research field, it is, however, very difficult to find the method that involves the path-dependant trend, and interdisciplinary nature of technology development. This study suggests modified technology cluster analysis (TCA) as a method for selecting strategic research field in order to include the recent technology trend in quantitative approach. TCA is the method that groups the near technologies of which the innovation pattern is similar. TCA model can be a very necessary method for multidisciplinary government research institutes (GRIs) which conduct multi research field with forward oriented positioning. It is more difficult for them to select the strategic research field mainly due to their diversity and intangibility of research scope. In this study, we applied this method to Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) which represents the most adequate research institute in terms of research diversity and forwardness. As a result of the application, we found that seven main technology groups come from TCA analysis, coincide with the technology topics of KIST's recent R&D planning. Even though this method designed for multidisciplinary research institutes, but it also can be used for establishing the research strategy of other (private or public) Research Institute which have the similar mission and scope of research.

Since Henry Chesbrough coined the term "open Innovation", active theoretical and empirical research has been conducted in many sectors. In Korea, private business sector took an active role in open innovation research and its adaptation. However, many public research institutes failed to follow the private sector's suit because they compete each other for limited fund from Korean government. The present research analyzed Korea Institute of Science and Technology(KIST) Open Research Program which pioneered open innovation research by sharing KIST research fund with third party entities and proposed a way to apply the KIST case to other public sectors.

Innovations of SMEs are critical for economic growth and creating employment. Collaborative innovations between SMEs and Public Research Institutes has been increasingly important to overcome limitation of SMEs innovation capability. Many studies on the collaborative innovation have been focused on the issues of absorptive capacity, project administration, and relationships of actors. This study, however, focus on attribute of project leader and partnership. Data on 149 R&D collaborative projects between SMEs and a Public Research Institute were collected. Empirical results show that project leaders' capabilities and partnerships including informal collaborative relationship unification, administrative unification, and contractual unification appear to affect performances both economical and technical. It also shows that the previous experience of R&D collaboration appear to effect the relationship between project leaders' capabilities, contractual unification, and administrative unification and technical performances.
